Hi Sue, just a quick message to say thank you for such a great informative Hyperlocal Marketing workshop. It provided me with a range of ideas and strategies that I will be implementing in the not too distant future. I’m already starting to plan my attack!!
Look forward to catching up with you again soon.
In the meantime, my very best regards.
